Dow Jones: Cautionary Negative Outlook 2/7/2024

The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) experienced sideways trading with a negative bias in the previous session, encountering resistance at the 39803 level and closing around 39447.

Technical Outlook:

On the 60-minute chart, several bearish signals have emerged. The simple moving averages (SMAs) are exerting downward pressure, while the 14-day momentum indicator shows clear negative signals.

Downside Potential:

Given these factors, we lean towards a negative outlook, but with caution. As long as the index remains below the 39530 resistance level, and more importantly below 39630, a further decline is likely. Breaking below 39390 could open the door for a drop towards the initial target of 39290, with potential for further losses towards 39130.

Potential Reversal:

Traders should be aware that a close above 39530 on the hourly chart could postpone the decline and potentially lead to a recovery towards 39630. However, the overall trend would only be invalidated with a sustained move above this level.

Key Levels:

  • Resistance: 39530, 39630
  • Support: 39390, 39290, 39130

Important Note:

The release of high-impact U.S. economic data today, including job vacancies and labor turnover rate, along with a speech by the Federal Reserve Chairman, could induce significant price volatility. Traders are advised to exercise caution and closely monitor market reactions to these news releases.
